High resolution textures for Oblivion. "Homepage" here:
http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=2363
I had a huge struggle downloading it from the designated mirrors (fileplanet tat and a rapidshare mirror) so here's a torrent upload to help everyone out.
The directory in the torrent is the contents of the zipfile download on the gamespy page linked above. The .exe is a self-extracting 7zip archive.
Despite comments in various places saying it needs a 512MB+ graphics card, it works fine on my 8800GTS 320MB.

sam3000: I previously tried this on my brother-in-law's 8800GTS 320MB but it couldn't quite do it. I watched the texture memory useage using the console tdt readouts, and it uses more than 320MB. When Oblivion uses more texture memory than your video card has, you take a big hit on FPS.

256MB or 128MB cards definitely will NOT be able to handle it.

That being said, it is the most awesome mod for any game I've ever seen.

That's very interesting because I've seen others say the same thing on forums. But I swear it works fine for me :-). perhaps roughly a 5 fps drop. I normally get anywhere between 30-70 fps outdoors depending on where I am.

texture mem usage peaks around 250MB for me (this is during running around outside). This is at 1280x1024 on 64 bit vista running drivers 158.45 and now 163.11. and I'm definitely running the high res pack!

More seeders would be appreciated please. I tried THREE times to download from stupid Fileplanet and they all failed with less than 10MB to go (99% done), what a waste of bandwith (over 5GB). This is the only source I can find for now unless someone has a working server source.
